Growing up in rural Nova Scotia in the 80s & 90s, we used rabbit ears to watch CTV & CBC—our lifeline, especially during elections. Now, the internet is endless noise, and I spend more time fact-checking than reading. Kinda miss the simpler days.

At Carney events, reporters scrum and decide on the question and who will ask. They can ask followup. At Poilievre events, handlers suggest questions, reporter(s)who agree get priority, and Poilievre chooses reporters with no followup.

You’re not “stuck” with an MP who cares more about power than his neighbours.
Or passing a security clearance check.
Time to retire Poilievre.

As Pierre Poilievre lectures Canadians on ethics, it’s useful to recall:
❌He violated the Canada Elections Act
❌He was in charge of the “Robocalls”scandal
❌He’s the only party leader without security clearance
❌He promoted crypto investment while holding personal Bitcoin

Canada won’t be bullied.
Trump’s tariffs are illegal, irrational, ill-considered and will hurt both countries.
We won’t stand by idly as he takes a wrecking ball to a century of partnership & free-trade.
Canada will respond & retaliate, Canadians will stand together, and we will win. #TeamCanada🇨🇦
